Which expression is a sum of cubes?
A. -64x^6y^12+125x^16y^3
B. -32x^6y^12+125x^16y^3
C. 32x^6y^12+125x^9y^3
D. 64x^6y^12+125x^9y^3

Respuesta :

Since [tex]\sqrt[3]{32}\not\in\mathbb Z[/tex], you can omit B and C as possible solutions.

Now,

[tex]-64x^6y^{12}+125x^{16}y^3=(-4x^2y^4)^3+(5x^{16/3}y)^3[/tex]

but since 16 is not divisible by 3, A is not correct either.

So D is the answer. To verify:

[tex]64x^6y^{12}+125x^9y^3=(4x^2y^4)^3+(5x^3y)^3[/tex]

The option D is expressed as the sum of two cubic expressions.  

Further explanation:  

Given:  

The given expressions are as follows:  

A. [tex]-64{x^6}{y^{12}}+125{x^{16}}{y^3}[/tex]

B. [tex]-32{x^6}{y^{12}}+125{x^{16}}{y^3}[/tex]

C. [tex]32{x^6}{y^{12}}+125{x^9}{y^3}[/tex]  

D. [tex]64{x^6}{y^{12}}+125{x^9}{y^3}[/tex]

Calculation:  

Step 1:  

For option A the expression [tex]-64{x^6}{y^{12}}+125{x^{16}}{y^3}[/tex] is simplified as follows:

[tex]\begin{aligned}&-64{x^6}{y^{12}}+125{x^{16}}{y^3}\\&\Leftrightarrow-{\left(4 \right)^3}{\left( {{x^2}} \right)^3}{\left( {{y^4}} \right)^3} + {\left( 5 \right)^3}\left( x \right){\left( x \right)^{15}}{\left( y \right)^3} \\ & \Leftrightarrow {\left( {-4{x^2}{y^4}} \right)^3}+x{\left( 5 \right)^3}{\left( {{x^5}} \right)^3}{\left( y \right)^3}\\ &\Leftrightarrow {\left( {-4{x^2}{y^4}} \right)^3}+x{\left( {5{x^5}y} \right)^3} \\ \end{aligned}[/tex]

Thus, the option A is not sum of two cubic expressions.  

Step 2:  

For option B the expression [tex]-32{x^6}{y^{12}}+125{x^{16}}{y^3}[/tex] is simplified as follows:  

[tex]\begin{aligned}&-32{x^6}{y^{12}} + 125{x^{16}}{y^3} \\ & \Leftrightarrow-\left( 4 \right){\left( 2 \right)^3}{\left( {{x^2}} \right)^3}{\left( {{y^4}} \right)^3} + {\left( 5 \right)^3}\left( x \right){\left( x \right)^{15}}{\left( y \right)^3} \\ & \Leftrightarrow4{\left( {-2{x^2}{y^4}} \right)^3} + x{\left( 5 \right)^3}{\left( {{x^5}} \right)^3}{\left( y \right)^3} \\ &\Leftrightarrow4{\left( {-2{x^2}{y^4}} \right)^3} + x{\left( {5{x^5}y} \right)^3} \\ \end{aligned}[/tex]

Thus, the option B is not sum of two cubic expressions.  

Step 3:  

For option C the expression [tex]32{x^6}{y^{12}} + 125{x^9}{y^3}[/tex] is simplified as follows:  

[tex]\begin{aligned} &32{x^6}{y^{12}}+125{x^9}{y^3} \\ &\Leftrightarrow\left( 4 \right)\left( 8 \right){\left( {{x^2}} \right)^3}{\left( {{y^4}} \right)^3} + {\left( 5 \right)^3}{\left( {{x^3}} \right)^3}{\left( y \right)^3} \\ &\Leftrightarrow \left( 4 \right){\left( 2 \right)^3}{\left( {{x^2}} \right)^3}{\left( {{y^4}} \right)^3} + {\left( 5 \right)^3}{\left( {{x^3}} \right)^3}{\left( y \right)^3} \\ &\Leftrightarrow 4{\left( {2{x^2}{y^4}} \right)^3} + {\left( {5{x^3}y} \right)^3} \\ \end{aligned}[/tex]

Thus, the option C is not sum of two cubic expressions.  

Step 4:  

For option D the expression [tex]64{x^6}{y^{12}}+125{x^9}{y^3}[/tex] is simplified as follows:  

[tex]\begin{aligned} &64{x^6}{y^{12}} + 125{x^9}{y^3} \\ &\Leftrightarrow {\left( 4 \right)^3}{\left( {{x^2}} \right)^3}{\left( {{y^4}} \right)^3} + {\left( 5 \right)^3}{\left( {{x^3}} \right)^3}{\left( y \right)^3} \\ &\Leftrightarrow {\left( {4{x^2}{y^4}} \right)^3} + {\left( {5{x^3}y} \right)^3} \\ \end{aligned}[/tex]

Here, the expression [tex]64{x^6}{y^{12}} + 125{x^9}{y^3}[/tex] is written as the sum of two cubic terms [tex]{\left( {4{x^2}{y^4}} \right)^3}[/tex]and[tex]{\left( {5{x^3}y} \right)^3}[/tex].  

Thus, the option D is expressed as the sum of two cubic expressions.
